The striped prinia (Prinia striata) or Swinhoe's prinia is a species of bird in the family Cisticolidae. It was formerly lumped with the Himalayan prinia (P. crinigera) as the striated prinia, but was split from it following a study published in 2019.[1][2][3]
It is distributed throughout mainland China and Taiwan. It is sympatric with P. crinigera in the Yunnan Province of China.[1][2]
There are three known subspecies: P. s. catharia which ranges from northeast India through Myanmar to south-central China. P. s. parumstriata, which is distributed throughout southeast and central China, and P. s. striata, which is restricted to Taiwan.[1][2]
